Porsche Taycan VS Audi e-tron GT: Which is better?

[@dinodinosaur2930]

🤔 For me the best GT EV has to be the EQS AMG and sports would be the Gran T Taycan ... Great video as always 👍👍

[@BestElectricVehicle]

Good point Dino! We might have to do a EQS -vs- xxx video soon! Thanks for the comment!

[@legacyjeetkunedo492]

The EQS is ugly.

[@ParkslopeDope]

Extremely ugly. It wasn’t even a consideration when buying because of how bad it looks

[@juniorthepitcher]

I respect your choice gut the Audi Etron is the one for me. I love long distance trips and that looks perfect

[@BestElectricVehicle]

Can't argue with you there! They're both great, but the softer sprung Audi might be better for longer trips as you say! Thanks for the comment!

[@doctorpaul8138]

I bought the Porsche. Absolutely incredible car. No regrets whatsoever.

[@davidmortensen4905]

Love both of them.

[@ufo734]

Ive ordered the Audi, but really do love the porsche. A part of me is wondering whether i should have gone for the porsche.

[@BestElectricVehicle]

You're making a great choice either way Jonsy! Suppose it depends on what pulls at your heart strings! Thanks for the comment!

[@ParkslopeDope]

Both cars are beautiful and perform incredibly well, but the Audi is the better looking of the two and you can get a comparable spec to the Porsche for a lot less $. I was a huge fan of the Taycan when it was first unveiled and knew it would be my next car but after seeing the Audi design unveiled it moved the Taycan down the list, especially given the performance to price delta. It was a no brainer which to choose and i’m a Porsche guy! You can’t go wrong either way though.

[@BestElectricVehicle]

Good points there Raymond. It's just great we have choices like that now in the EV world. Thanks for the comment!

[@ronb4633]

Martyn, have you made it down to a local Porsche dealership for a Taycan test drive yet? After this excellent review. I love the Taycan 4S, Porsche speaks my design language. ;-)

[@BestElectricVehicle]

Ha! We all know Martyn has one of each in his driveway that he won't tell us about! We'd love to get him in one for a full review alright! Thanks for the comment!

Absolutely cost-effective for performance - etron GT

[@BestElectricVehicle]

And what performance! Thanks for the comment!

[@ronaldfish1569]

You do an amazing job, but it would be nice when you’re talking kilometers please put in miles for us US buyers who want to watch your videos

[@BestElectricVehicle]

Yeah, you're right Ronald. We've started to do that more lately. Helps keep it international! Thanks!

[@tomquimby8669]

Porsche! better resale value

[@kyriakoskarallis5268]

Actually no because the Porsche despite the badge is producing so many more cars than Audi. Porsche since launch has already produced over 100k Tycans where as Audi only produced 15k. Also the base model Tycan won’t hold its value as much as the Etron GT.

[@biturbo1904]

I think GT have the best looks, and is 70% Porsche for less money 💰 I think RS is the one for me

[@BestElectricVehicle]

Can't argue with that! Thanks for the comment!

[@js002003]

If you want a sports car feeling EV, you have to go taycan or etron gt... The S (although faster in a straight line in plaid spec) feels more like the e tron suv.

[@BestElectricVehicle]

Interesting point of view, thanks for sharing! Can't wait to see the others coming to market with EV sports cars...maybe something smaller but with great specs! Thanks again!

[@臺灣是國家臺灣是國家]

Both amazing tech spurred on because of you know who. I am not one to follow fads but as much as I don’t like SUV’s and prefer the classic sedan, SUVs are just better for my back as I age.....👴🏻

[@BestElectricVehicle]

That's a fair comment, the added height helps some people. And yeah, both cars are great so we welcome all the competition! Thanks for chipping in!

[@thegreatpaulsmith]

Taycan is better, Audi more value. I ordered a RS E-Tron GT. Taycan Turbo was $30k more for a comparable spec so I went for what I could afford

[@BestElectricVehicle]

A fine choice Paul! Have to ask...what colour did you go for? Thanks for the comment!

[@thegreatpaulsmith]

@@BestElectricVehicle Exclusive Color Nogaro Blue, Year one option with red contrast stitching and carbon ceramic brakes

[@hardyho]

I'm still leaning toward a Lucid Air. It's got better performance all around than these two. Please compare!

[@BestElectricVehicle]

That's a good idea Sean! Would be a nice comparison. We'll see if we can squeeze it into the schedule. Thanks for the comment!

[@legacyjeetkunedo492]

Not if performance includes handling, steering, and suspension. Plus, the Lucid is an ugly Saudi car, so no thank you.

[@reinholdneuberger2338]

Outside the Audi and inside the Porsche

[@BestElectricVehicle]

Would be great to be able to order like that! Thanks Reinhold!

[@doctorbashir3497]

I bought the RS Etron GT. I LOOOOVED the Mission E concept. But the Taycan ended up as a poor conversion. The etron looks identical to the great looking concept. Mission E. Most gorgeous. RS Etron GT. Next best looking Taycan. 3rd of the 3 This is all just opinion BTW. I would not fault anyone for preferring the Taycan. No losing here. Honestly.

[@BestElectricVehicle]

Spot on Bashir! They're all great options, and then each individual can decide which one they like the most! Thanks for the comment!

[@enesisildak2778]

E tron gt🤢

[@doctorpaul8138]

Agreed; all are great. I took the Sport Turismo which I think is the ultimate ev sport wagon, and I love it. But each to their own. The Etron is certainly a beautiful car.

[@legacyjeetkunedo492]

The Porsche is superior.
